They Do It Anyway

We are either meant to believe in a system – a selected agenda – or react against it. An agenda is the underlying motive of things to be done, be it politics, science or religion.

People talk and argue about science, politics and religion, but this is merely entertainment as the agendas do not change. There is no resolution, just cliches that occupy minds.

Systems are preordained. We are born into them, and they aren’t going to change for us. It’s we who have to change if we do not agree. There is no point in wanting to change others, as this would make us one of them. 😀

“Do not take my word for the truth; test it for yourself.”
– Buddha.

Once we realise the nature of reality beyond systems, we can never fit into any preordained, illusory construct again. Yanas are levels of realisation concerning fixations. If someone says something, we have to be aware at which level they are speaking; is it on exoteric levels, or an esoteric level?

If we can no longer fit into others’ ways of thinking, then it’s time to let go.

Profound things can be spoken, even by a Buddha, but there are always omissions due to lack of personal experience and realisation that does not take sides. An example: in a debate between creationists and evolutionists, we hear the usual “yuddha yuddha yuddha” … to nowhere. Both ignore consciousness that is present because, for them, it’s just a tool; they don’t realise that consciousness is precisely what we are, for without that, their theories couldn’t be constructed.

The omission is, “Testing words yourself – don’t just follow others.”
We are too ready to adhere to others’ ideas to be on the side of the righteous.

On the deepest level of meditation, consciousness is realised as pure non-duality that has no sides and no entertainment.

Yuddha: Inherited from Sanskrit युद्ध (yuddha) meaning war.
